Abstract:
In this paper, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel space-reception diversity model based on Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) algorithm in Single Input Multiple Output (SIMO) Visible Light Communication (VLC) system. Different from the previous schemes, the data was received by two detectors located in different space positions at the same time, and then, combined using MRC algorithm. As a result, the Bit Error Ratio (BER) of receivers can be reduced to one to two orders of magnitude. The performance of VLC system is significantly improved.
